The Iowa Journal of History and Politics, January 1908
State Historical Society of Iowa, Iowa City, January 1908, 1908. First Edition. Soft cover. Very Good+. Item #5003047
Royal 8vo printed wraps. 158pp. Four articles: 1) The History and Principles of the Democratic Party of Iowa, by Louis Pelzer. 2) The History of Liquor Legislation in Iowa 1846 - 1861, by Dan Elbert Clark. 3) An Early Fugitive Slave Case West of the Mississippi River, by John C. Parish. 4) The Color Bearer of the Twelfth Iowa Volunteer Infantry, by J. W. Rich. The issue also has book reviews, notes on the contributors, & other typical features for a historical quarterly. With the upcoming Iowa primaries/caucuses, etc., this issue is particularly pertinent to an early historical study of the Democrats in Iowa. Cover wrappers overlap the text block & are therefore chipped on the fore edges. Else fine.
